It’s Monday. Everyone have a good weekend? Mine was pretty good. We had some beautiful weather on Saturday so the girlfriend and I hopped into the Vette and took a spin down to her parent’s place in Mahomet, Illinois. We had the whole day so we took our time going down, stopping in several small towns along the way. We’ve found that there’s always something interesting in small towns, like this totally bitchin’ van we found in Forest, Illinois. It was just sitting off the main road in a small gravel lot all by itself. I thought that it might be for sale, but there was no sign. I looked it up and it appears to be a Chevy Van 90 which were made between 1967 and 1970. They were a very popular vehicle to customize, especially in the 70s. The paint work was spectacular and the old school Cragar wheels really complete the look. And, bonus points for the side pipes! A very cool find that would be a hit at any car show!

We eventually made to to her parent’s house and had a great time with them. Her Mom even had cake, so I couldn’t turn that down. They loved the Vette and were very happy we stopped by. We started heading back home and grabbed some dinner on the way. It was late by the time we got home and were both exhausted. All that fresh air—I slept like a baby!
